glegolo Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) I am NOT living in your part of Thailand, but hopefully I can give you a suggestion of where to go and look for Schweppes Tonic water. We have been up here in Chaiyaphum-area at least, completely out of it for the last past months. All to my sadness.... Suddenly after a lot of "talk" to MAKRO here, they started to take home this Tonic Water again. So we are happy up here, and we are lucky that we have MAKRO, but the 2 stupid stores Tesco Lotus and especially Big C are still out of it, and they make absolutely no efforts to get it back in stock again. Hope this was to some help for you. Glegolo Edited January 28, 2012 by glegolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jehricaholic Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 3 cheers for Foodland! Big C is closer to me than Foodland but I'll never shop for food alone at Big C anymore. Foodland has better selection and quality all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurfRider Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) . Checked Jomtien-Foodmart late this afternoon - no Schweppes Tonic. Beverage manager says "long time no have - cannot get from Bangkok" -- Checked two mom & pop shops that are always well stocked - nothing. Same-same "long time no have - all Pattaya same" Obviously info reported earlier in this thread was B.S. -- Imo, people intentionally reporting erroneous information should be given a posting holiday! .

gerry53 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Foodmart in Jomtien has plenty I have checked Foodmart in Jomtien 3 times over the last week and they has no Schweppes Tonic or Pepsi Max (diet). I haven't run into these in 3 Jomtien area 7-11s I checked either? It may be poor timing on my part or hoarding if these products do show up. Even many of the bars seem to be out of these with only Coke Zero as an alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SurfRider Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 . Schweppes Tonic available today at undisclosed condo mini-mart at confiscatory price of 25 Baht per can.
